Farrington descends from a sound, well bred family. He is one of the few approved stallions with the blood of Doruto in his veins. Doruto
sired many top dressage horses such as: Olympic Barbria, Chevalier, Ideaal, and more.
His sire, Wellington, is also well known as a producer of great movement in his offspring and sired dressage horses such as: Bollvorms
Ceylon and Luxaflex.
Due to a fracture in his leg, Farrington was not able to perform in the sport, which is a pity because of the great talent he possesses.
During his Stallion Test he obtained a score of 8 for his basic gaits and 9 for temperament.
His daughter, Perry, became Dutch Reserve Champion in the class for three year old mares and Theandra became Dutch Reserve
Champion of the 'Keur' and 'Elite' mares. Farrington's progeny have placed high in the Pavo Cup, and many of them are already
performing at the Grand Prix level, such as Limited Edition. His son Michigan was the 2005 winner of the Individual Gold Medal at
the North American Young Rider Dressage Championships in the USA.
Farrington has been awarded the 'Keur' predicate by the KWPN in 2002. This is a high honor for a stallion indication he is a
producer of good performance horses.
